Situated in Kaikoura, 1.3 km from Kaikoura Beach, Austin Heights - Kaikoura features a garden and views of the garden. The guest house features rooms with air conditioning, free private parking and free WiFi. Very well appointed space, with everything we needed to be comfortable. The lounge chairs facing an incredible view were comfortable for winding down after a long day of travel. Place was very clean, newly renovated. Had a comfortable bed and great shower. We received information on self entry just prior to our arrival. Entry was very smooth. Would stay there again.
